𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗿𝗲𝗻 𝗛𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗧𝗼𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗿𝗼𝘄 celebrates the voices of children living along the shore, where imagination, survival, and storytelling converge. Led by Ilongga artist and writer Kristine Buenavista, the programme builds on her long-standing practice in social design, storytelling, and community facilitation.
Born in Barotac Viejo, Iloilo, Tin’s early life without electricity continues to shape her reflective, community-rooted approach. Her work spans participatory installations, creative nonfiction, and child-focused art projects. From storytelling in shacks after Typhoon Haiyan (2013), to Mata sang Bata, Mata sang Bagyo (2022), and recent workshops in Boracay (2025) where children initiated discussions on social issues, her projects foreground young voices as powerful agents of change.
Through these initiatives, art becomes both cathartic space and listening ground, honouring children’s perspectives as central to reimagining futures. The programme invites audiences to encounter these voices not as peripheral, but as vital to rethinking how communities endure, adapt, and dream beyond the tides.
